"This is a *major* bug that currently affects thousands of users," Spotify user Paul Miller told Ars. "If for example, Castrol Oil lowered your engine's life expectancy by five to 10 years, I imagine most users would want to know, and that fact *should* be reported on."

Sometimes Spotify is testing features on a small group of users to compare the experience with those not on the test. As you have seen, you might see something that your friend doesn’t, or have access to something brand new for only a temporary period. You can read more about it here.
